THE Duke of Cambridge has showcased a new haircut – one of his shortest yet – as he visited a children’s hospital.
William stepped out sporting the closely trimmed style as he celebrated the national rollout of the Step into Health programme at the Evelina London Children’s Hospital.

Prince Harry often teases his older brother about losing his locks.
While chatting to a Second World War veteran in Barbados several years ago, Harry remarked that William “was already bald aged 12”.
In 2014, the Duchess of Cambridge suggested the perfect solution for her husband’s growing bald patch – an alpaca toupee.
